Beyond the much-explored area containing Stellerweghöhle and the
|
|
|
|
Schwarzmooskogeleishöhle, SE facing slopes dropping from the long
|
|
|
|
Schwarzmooskogel to Augst-Eck ridge continue for another 3km. The steep
|
|
|
|
cliff band of Weiße Wand below the Stögerweg path is replaced by
|
|
|
|
more broken cliffs above the path as it drops down from the southern slopes
|
|
|
|
of Vorderer Schwarzmooskogel to the pass of Hochklapfsattel at the head of

This path passes through an impressive 170m deep doline on its way to
|
|
|
|
Wildensee, following roughly the line of the major fault which separates the
|
|
|
|
limestone block of our area 1623 from the adjacent 1624 area to the SE. The
|
|
|
|
Wildensee hutte and Youth Hostel are in a relatively level area of mainly
|
|
|
|
bare karren, separated from the bare rounded ridge of Augst-Eck by steeper
|
|
|
|
wooded slopes. Although there is no path here, the map shows a ski route
|
|
|
|
ascending from the huts to the Augst-Eck and Grieß kogel ridge,

Almost all the known caves of the area lie east of the Vorderer
|
|
|
|
Schwarzmooskogel, at the top break of slope of the broken craggy zone.
|
|
|
|
Explored in the 1950s, they are possibly most easily approached from the col

|
|
|
by <a href="1623/161/top.htm">Kaninchenhöhle</a>. Other caves lie
|
2001-08-15 19:29:27 +01:00
|
|
|
very close to the Wildensee Alm, as there appears to have been very little
|
|
|
|
exploratory effort anywhere in the area.
